Dearest C,
Let me be the first to congratulate you on the resounding success of Operation Open Wallet - one woman's single-handed attempt to celebrate her birthday, her way . While family, friends and neighbors singularly failed to acknowledge the national holiday created in your honor (some even had the temerity to claim it as Rosh Hashanah!), you simply pressed on with the task at hand. With the determination of an only child used to getting her way, you launched your offensive and charged your way through the stores of downtown Bethesda with chilling precision and lightening speed. Two hours later, a scene of devastation lay in your wake, but you emerged, victorious, as the proud owner of an entire new wardrobe, plus various technological goodies befitting a woman who needs realtime access to her email and contact list in order to be able to move men and materiel around.
For all this, and more, I salute you, and ask you to forgive me for not being there to carry your shopping bags. I only hope that the suspender belt and tassles supplied by yours truly come in handy when it comes to building up troop morale this weekend.
Faithfully,
P.

I'm not going to say anything..I've been out doing damage myself. :x
